HOME AND FARM.
BIZ Mrs. ST. J. T. MOORE.
A Warming.

AS tho time has now come for tho
"fruit tree vendors" to invade the
country and make war on all settled
ideas of old fashioned fruit growing,
word as to their real value may not be
out of place. That any improvement
In the direction of fruit growing ought
to be welcomed, Is not denied, and
these vendors have at their tongues
ends new, fine and tested varieties,
whether they have them In stock or
not. As to their reel value, they have
none, unless it be a catalogue of fruits
that has arrived at your door. without
your dropping postal to obtain one.
AS TO their delivering the tree, true to
the name mentioned, is a risk, and q
statement that rarely fulfills its prom
Use. fall the trees planted in North
Louisiana since the war, bought OF
these fruit agents, had redeemed the
promises of the seller and in any way
paid for them, the country would have
no need to send or 60 any where else
for It's fruit, for 1t would indeed have
been as plentiful as the tborns on
bushes.
Nurserymen sending out catalogues,
all state that they have no agents but
will fill your orders direct from their
nursery, from which you may be sure
to get just what you send for. Many
will complain that they do not know
what to send for. AS to that, any edi-
tor In the county paper can refer you
to some one In the neig who
can tell you where TO get your trees and
what to select. All trees, apple, or
pear, or peach, will not do in the same
locality, aud those who have tried diff
ferent varieties will know what will
suit.
These nursery men will send you
trees at "living and at live' prices.
The agent must have his travelling ex.
peases and his commission, end these
must come out of the country people
the grower does not allow him enough.
A few days since an agent passing
through the country selling pear trees
one year old, at one dollar (" piece, was
telling an audience of plain old country
folks, how another agent had got
kicked for bis big stories and big prices,
when one of the farmers said: "Well,
and you was the man !! wern't you ?
cause II you wasn't you ought to have
Bean"
Take this farmers advice and If you
do not kickout these frauds, at least
shy clear of them and send direct to
the nursery for what you want, holding
them responsible for what you got, II
1t is five years after you plant the tree.
Apple trees are selling at many of
the nurserys at five and six cents a
piece, and the freight on these is 80
little that two hundred can be carried
from Chicago here for one dollar and
ffty cents. Send to the middle states
for apples, pears and peaches. To
the far north for small fruits such AS
Strawberries, raspberies and grapes.

1t is a really proud thing to find artistic
work'which will rank with the best, inspired
by ideas from classic in American htera-
ture, and executed upon stutfS which have
no peer in the fabrics sent out from the
looms of tho old world. These artistic ma

OF picture" dresses, and it has become a
common thing for foreign visitors to select
from them for gifts for friends at home,
considering them at once the finest and most
truly unique of the American productions.
A feature of the exhibition was the famous
canvass embroidery upon leather, outlined
with gold thread, from the Boston Decora-
tive Art Society, and the lockwood pottery
from Cincinnati, with its beautiful under
glaze and "tiger-eyen effects.
ToILETTES AT A NOTABLE RECEPTION.
1t is little out Of date, but perhaps the
reader may like to hear of what was worn
by several notable women at private recep-
lions in which they participated. One of
these was given to Mrs. Cleveland when she
was in this city lately The beautiful Young
wife of the President wore lovely costume
of golden brown peau de sole. combined
with cream-colored cloth embroidered with
SOitAf Sllldll DeuQS.
The embroidery formed vest, panel (pyra-
midal in form and border at the foot
below which was narrow plating of silk.
1t was also employed for the high collar and
cuffs.
charming costume worn by Tua the
famous vlolinist, on an occasion when she
was presented to Miss Cleveland and asked
to play for her, deserves mention. This
consisted of the softest white India wool.
with limos of cold ~, hn r,,II
drapery and in the finish of the sleeves,
which terminated above the elbow and were
slashed up on the inside, leaving the arms
perfectly free when the long, delicate Swede
gloves were removed A violin of dia-
nionds, gift of royalty, confined the dress
at the throat. Her cloak was of gold-colored
plush, lined with white fur. A friend who
accompanied her wore high dress of ex-
quisite wine colored wool, with chemisette
Of finest embroidery, fastened with garnets
set clear and in star clusters.
Miss Cleveland wore an evening dress of
pink silk trimmed with white lace and was
honored with the court bow. which is only
used upon presentation to royal personages,
viz: the low dip, the step back and the slow
elevation of the body to an upright posi-
ton. A training in slow, graceful move
ment-in low tones-in the method Of en-
tering and leaving room and in the form
ula of receiving guests, is part of the curric-
culum of some finishing" schools, and is
certainly needed, for nothing strikes a cuI-
tivated person more disagreeabIy than the
hurricane" mode of entering room, re-
gardless of who is present. The loud, rasp-
ing voices often heard the height and
depth of four stories, or the way young
people have of forming clique and fall
ing utterly of respectful attention to older
persons, who ought to be objects of their
care and attention. JENNY JUNE.
